Sardinia is quite a warm place (we had only a couple of days under 0 Celsius weeks ago), so I guess I don't know what a really cold winter is. Anyway, I spent my two weeks of Christmas holidays sleeping; I spent a lot of time with my wife, too

And... no Perl, no computers, almost no Internet... I couldn't believe I didn't need them!!!

Ciao!--bronto

The very nature of Perl to be like natural language--inconsistant and full of dwim and special cases--makes it impossible to know it all without simply memorizing the documentation (which is not complete or totally correct anyway).--John M. Dlugosz

When putting a smiley right before a closing parenthesis, do you:

Use two parentheses: (Like this: :) )
Use one parenthesis: (Like this: :)
Reverse direction of the smiley: (Like this: (: )
Use angle/square brackets instead of parentheses
Use C-style commenting to set the smiley off from the closing parenthesis
Make the smiley a dunce: (:>
I disapprove of emoticons
